Al-Qaeda Hostage Colombian Nun Turns to Pope Francis: ‘Do the Impossible’ to Free Me
2018-02-05
[BREITBART] A Colombian nun held hostage by al-Qaeda’s branch in the African country of Mali is purportedly shown begging for Pope Francis to help liberate her in a video released by the jihadist group, reveals the SITE Intelligence Group, an organization that monitors jihadi websites.

"Al-Qaeda’s Mali branch releases proof-of-life video of Colombian captive addressing Pope Francis for help," reports SITE.

In the footage, Nusrat al-Islam wal Moslemeen (NIM), al-Qaeda’s wing in faction, features "Colombian missionary Gloria Cecilia Narvaez Argotry, wherein she appeals to Pope Francis to intercede on her behalf," reveals the monitor group.

The video was reportedly released at the end of January by a Mali-based faction affiliated with al-Qaeda, which claims to have kidnapped the nun for "preaching Christianity and supporting the crusaders in Mali."

In the footage, the Catholic missionary Narvaez from Colombia is seen appealing to Pope Francis.

The Franciscan nun beseeches the earthly leader of the Catholic faith, Pope Francis, to help her, saying, "I ask you to help with my freedom and do the impossible and get them to release me."
